What have you been up to?

Funny you should ask. I have been very, very busy as of the last 2 weeks. Brian and I drove all the way to New York, strategically calculating how best to avoid the approaching winter storms. Luckily, we stayed ahead of the fronts the entire journey. After laughing at state advertising, my boredom on the two-day drive set in. It led me to making an impromptu “Vote Obama ’08″ sign, which I then placed in the window in hopes of influencing Ohio and Pennsylvania voters into supporting my man, Barack. Apparently Ohio voters drive with their eyes shut because I’m sure if they had actually seen my amazing artwork, there would have been no other way to go. Alas.

We’ve been living in corporate housing in White Plains and searching for Brian’s new apartment in the meantime. We were very fortunate to find him an awesome place in the city, just a few minutes walk from Grand Central at an under-the-market value. YAY! We were so glad to put an end to the hunt. Apartment shopping in New York is a completely different experience!

I upgraded the website to a newer version of wordpress and a new template, only now I am having issues with my collapsible page menu plugin. It should be compatible with this version of wordpress, so I think it has something to do with my template. If anyone can help me out, it would be much appreciated!

On top of all this, I’ve been preparing for my upcoming travels. I leave for Poland later today! So, I’ve been spending tons of time preparing, indulging in foods I may not have for a while (the cannoli above!), and packing my bags. Oh man, I’m leaving today. I still can’t believe it!
